1 ROUND BALER RB 545 / RB 545 Silage Pack

2 THE RB545 SILAGE PACK In Silage Pack format, the RB545 is equipped with an integral wrapper, turning the complete silage-making process into a oneman operation, saving precious time and money. Furthermore, this process avoids any air entry and ensures the highest silage quality. THE RB ROUND BALER SERIES Cost-efficient, compact, consistent... 2

3 THE STANDARD RB545 In stand-alone format, the RB545 is an excellent hay and straw baler, capable of making firm, well-formed bales which keep their shape during storage. And, of course, it s also a superb silage baler, forming high-density packages that make excellent winter fodder. Whether you re working in small grass fields or big arable expanses, the RB545 is also one of the most manoeuvrable and softly-treading balers in the business. Bales of firmness, consistency and quality, resulting in feed and bedding of the highest standard. Whatever the crop, whatever the conditions, those are the hallmarks of Case IH RB fixed chamber round balers. And with the new RB545 and RB545 Silage Pack, these characteristics are enhanced still further, with a series of new features which ensure even better baling and finer forage. SILAGE AND MORE As a fixed chamber machine with integral chopper unit making bales of 1.25 m in diameter, the new RB545 is an ideal silage baler. But whether you re baling high or low dry matter grass, hay or straw, the RB545 can handle it all. This is a baler built to take on all tasks. RB FIXED CHAMBER BALERS. NEW LEVELS OF PERFECTION. 3

4 PERFORMANCE MONITOR The RB545 baler and the RB545 Silage Pack baler/wrapper combination are controlled by using ISOBUS technology for the ultimate in ease-of-use and efficient operation. The machines can be ordered with a Case IH AFS700 terminal or operated using an existing AFS or other ISOBUS terminal. THE INSIDE STORY Features designed to make a difference BALERS TO BOOST YOUR BUSINESS The RB545 and RB545 Silage Pack round balers from Case IH are designed to make baling faster, easier and simpler, all while producing higher-quality results. Browse the following pages and you ll see just what Case IH engineers have done to make these the best fixed chamber balers we ve ever built. NEW PICK-UP Improved crop feeding and a new roller design means more air is squeezed from every layer of material that goes into making up an RB545 bale. As a result, whatever the crop you get a cleaner field, firmer and tighter crop packing, and fewer bales to handle as a result. There s also a new pick-up support wheel design, with fixed or castor-steering wheels.

5 BALE CHAMBER New stronger, cold-formed chamber rollers are a key feature of RB545 and RB545 Silage Pack design. They incorporate a new ten-notch surface to ensure the bale is kept turning no matter what the conditions or type of material concerned. The new chamber is also equipped with a new, stronger driveline. PACKAGING AND PROTECTION Both the RB545 and RB545 Silage Pack are fitted as standard with a netwrap system to provide bales with a neat, secure and weatherproof finish that also ensures they retain their shape. The RB545 Silage Pack can optionally use a film wrap instead of net. Anyhow, it offers the ultimate method of immediate silage packaging, with the bales being film wrapped immediately after being ejected from the chamber. STANDARD ROTOR CUTTER WITH DROP FLOOR In-cab hydraulic operation of the standard drop floor allows any blockages to be dealt with quickly and easily, ejecting material towards the bale chamber. A manual knife selector provides three options for: using 10 of the 20 knives, the other 10 of the 20 knives, or all 20 knives. The knives will automatically retractif the drop floor is lowered re-entering work once the floor has been raised. 5

7 1 2 3 A CLEAN SWEEP Leaving nothing behind 1 Pick-up suspension 2 Versatile pick-up, designed for high performance regardless the conditions 3 Pick-up is equipped with a windguard on all versions The 2.2 m RB pick-up blends the proven design from our variable chamber balers with the tough, high-strength 5.5 mm tines from our big square baler ranger, for the ultimate in robust reel design. The tines are arranged across five tine bars, for a thorough sweep that leaves nothing behind. A swath roller is standard equipment. NEW SUSPENSION SYSTEM A double suspension system cushions the pick-up and aids flotation at high baling speeds, making for smoother baling and reducing the impact of the pick-up on the soil, while minimising the risk of tines striking the ground. DOUBLE CAM STEERING Pick-up support wheels are available as fixed or castoraction units. In the latter format they are able to follow the path of the baler as it s pulled by the tractor, reducing side stresses and the risk of scrubbing ROTOR CUTTER EVOLUTION In the event of a blockage, a new standard hydraulicallyoperated drop floor discharges the crop. A wide opening of 120mm at the front means material is ejected quickly and efficiently. And there is no need to reverse the tractor to pick up lost crop. RB BALERS. NEW LEVELS OF PRODUCTIVITY.

8 1 2 3 PERFECT BALES Time after time 1 Rotor declutch 2 New Rotor Cutter design 3 Knives selector Getting the crop into the pick-up quickly and cleanly lays the foundation for a good bale, but it s what goes on inside the machine that makes the biggest difference. This is where Case IH RB545 models provide the solutions that ensure what leaves the tailgate is an uninterrupted stream of well-formed bales. DROP FLOOR Hydraulically-operated from the cab, the standard drop floor allows easy removal of material should a blockage occur, with a wide 120mm opening ejecting it towards the bale chamber. The geometry of the design is such that it has a double opening, wider at the front than at the rear. The result? No lost crop, and no need to reverse the tractor and baler to pick up discharged material. Simply raise the drop floor and carry on as before, with nothing left behind. ROTOR DE-CLUTCH As an alternative to the new standard drop floor feature, there is the option to specify a rotor de-clutch system. In the event of a blockage, this allows the bale in the chamber to be completed and ejected with the pick-up and rotor disengaged, so that the blockage can then be dealt with. KNIFE SELECTION There are three manual knife selection options, allowing 10 of the 20 knives to be used, taking them out of work and using the other 10, in the event that the first set has become blunt, and using all 20 knives. In the event the drop floor is activated to clear a blockage, the knives retract automatically, returning to their original working position once the floor has been raised. RB BALERS.

11 1 2 3 BALE AND WRAP Two tasks, one machine 1 Dual pre-wrapping system with net and plastic film 2 Reliable and proven design wrapping system 3 Quarter turn PRE-WRAPPING & FILMING The RB545 Silage Pack offers the ability to pre-wrap bales with plastic film in the bale chamber, eliminating the need for the net wrapping. This not only save money and bale finishing time, but it also provides an improved oxygen barrier, maintaining higher forage quality during long storage periods. If film wrapping is not required, film rolls can be exchanged within minutes for net rolls. QUARTER TURN Available as an option, this feature allows bales to be deposited on one end, helping to ensure safety on slopes where bales might otherwise roll, and allowing easy pick-up by squeeze-type handlers. An improved system uses a wheel/tyre to gently turn bales on their ends. TIRES The wider tyres offer the ultimate in ground protection, minimising compaction, while the alternatives provide a good solution where narrow roads and gateways are an issue. RB BALERS. NEW LEVELS OF FLEXIBILITY. 11

12 AIRTIGHT WRAPPING For the finest forage With the RB545 Silage Pack combination, your grass swaths are turned instantly into silage bales without any form of rehandling. Improved crop feeding and a new roller design means more air is squeezed from every layer of material that goes into making up the bale. When coupled with the new improved chamber rollers, this means air is excluded immediately from the package, and there s no risk of bale surface contamination from touching the soil. USE NET OR PRE-WRAP WITH PLASTIC FILM In addition to eliminating the need for netwrap and thereby cutting input costs, replacing net with pre-stretched film means bales can be utilised more easily and with less wastage in periods of frost, when net can freeze into the bale. The use of wide pre-stretched film in place of net also increases the pressure in the bale. TREAD LIGHTLY RB545 Silage Pack balers benefit from a smooth, stable ride thanks to a combination of tandem axles and 560/45 R22.5 flotation tyres. Excellent weight distribution, regardless of whether there is a bale in the chamber, on the wrapper or at both locations, is afforded by carefullyengineered design. This means the baler-wrapper combination is easy to manoeuvre, and spreads its weight over the maximum possible area, for minimal impact on the soil. For hill and road safety, braking options include hydraulic and air systems. ADVANTAGES Pre-wrap system eliminates need for netwrap Also increases bale pressure No net frosting issues Tandem braked axle Hydraulic and air braking options 12

15 1 2 FINGERTIP CONTROL Everything at hand 1 Automatic wrapping system 2 Contact your dealer for further information on Thirty Plus additive system AFS 700 and ISOBUS 2 All primary functions of Case IH RB545 and RB545 Silage Pack balers can be controlled using ISOBUS connectivity, through any compatible ISOBUS terminal. For a perfect match, the Case IH AFS 700 terminal is your ideal operating partner, and the RB545 and RB545 Silage Pack can be ordered with this unit if required, enabling full touchscreen machine operation. HYDRAULIC POWER Standard RB 545 balers require one single-acting hydraulic valve for operation of the baler tailgate, and a double-acting service for raising/lowering the pick-up, operating the drop floor and the placing the knives in or out of operation. An additional single-acting valve is required if the optional rotor declutch is specified. These can all be ISOBUS-controlled. RB545 Silage Pack round baler-wrapper combinations require a single-acting outlet for tailgate operation, a double-acting valve with load sensing and a Power Beyond connection. Again, a further single-acting valve is required if the baler is equipped with the rotor declutch, and all valves can be controlled using ISOBUS. RB BALERS. NEW LEVELS OF CONTROL. 15

New styling not only makes these balers look good, but it also makes service access easier, with each main side panel easily raised with the aid of gas struts. On the left side of the machines you ll find all hydraulic functions have been grouped to make daily checks and any adjustments required as quick and easy as possible. Hydraulic oiling and central greasing canisters are placed at eye level for easy checking, and are sited in an uncluttered area for easy refilling without spillage. ULTRA-RELIABLE COMPONENTS While the rollers have been re-engineered to improve their grip on the bale, they remain supported by bushes that are fixed with just two strong bolts. If it becomes necessary to replace bushes, this can be carried out without removing the roller. And when the chopper knives need to be replaced, this can be done quickly and easily without tools. 16
